Sedum / Stonecrop
Dragon's Blood
Sedum spurium
Dragon's Blood Sedum is a stunning groundcover that will add a touch of charm to any garden. Its deep-red flower buds open up to brilliant pink, creating a beautiful contrast with the succulent foliage tinged with wine-red margins. This perennial is perfect for troughs, stone walls, live roofs, or as a massed groundcover as it gently drapes over edges. In the late summer, the charming star-shaped flower clusters bloom just above the foliage, which turns red with cooler temperatures in the fall. With its spreading habit and tolerance of dry soils, Sedum Dragon's Blood quickly forms a dense mat, making it an excellent groundcover. Growing only 4 to 6 inches tall, the succulent green leaves are edged in dark cranberry, adding even more visual appeal to this already stunning plant. It's easy to see why Sedum Dragon's Blood is a favorite among gardeners looking to create a charismatic carpet of changing colors in their garden.
